My family has a long proud history of Military Service and in Wisconsin (in the city where my dad was born) they have this amazing memorial for Wisconsin Veterans called the The Higher Ground. It is hard to explain how amazing this place is. All these heroes recognized in one place.
My mom's dad was in the Navy and fought during WWII. Above is the memorial for those who fought during that war and Below in the boys sitting by his plaque.
Below is probably the most heart-breaking memorial there. In the back is a soldier who didn't make it home and in the front in a mom and child with their flag. In the summer water flows from the back to the front representing the tears shed.
The boys and their cousin ringing the bell.
